Comment:

Most of this was for a girl...isn't that always the story? She said I was always down because of the music I listened to. Tried to drag her down with me...

You know, I've made a couple of comps for a friend at work and she's told me something like, "I can hear you in the music you listen to. A lot of sadness and despair."
Well, hell, I'd thought they were fairly upbeat.

Well, I always thought this line from High Fidelity was appropriate...

"What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?"
